How Much Progress? ~
Introduction ~ Many would argue that our world experienced a
tough year in 2021. The COVID virus is a
world-wide issue. Many governments are going
through dramatic change which can cause great uncertainties.
Responsibility ~ If you are a Christian you are to be growing
more and more like Christ as you wait for His return. Did you become more Christ-like in 2021?
Reflection ~ Did you grow intellectually in 2021? Did you intentionally pay attention to your physical
health in 2021? How about spiritual
growth in 2021? And, what about your social
interaction and skills? Remember your
example and role model is none other than Jesus Christ! Jesus said, “Follow Me.”
Scripture ~ “And Jesus increased in
wisdom [intellectually] and stature [physically], and in favor
with God [spiritually] and men [socially]” (Luke 2:52).
Closing Question
~ Are you willing be even more
intentional in 2022?
The Most Important Issue In Life ~ Have
you settled your eternal destiny? Right
this moment you are headed for either heaven or hell – there is no third
alternative. Unless you make a deliberate
decision you are headed to an eternal punishment. If you are ready to receive the forgiveness and
loving acceptance that Christ offers then it is as simple as A-B-C:
“A” ~ Admit that you have sinned and need a
strength beyond your own.
“B” ~ Believe in the power of the death,
burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
“C” ~ Choose to trust Christ as your Savior
and to learn of Him, seek to follow Him, and in so doing possess “the peace
that passes any human understanding.”
